Ua kākoʻo ʻia ka ʻaelike i loaʻa ma waena o ka mokulele a me ka hui ʻoihana Unite ma kahi hālāwai nui o kahi kokoke i 2000 mau lālā o ka lālā o ka moku kaʻa, ka British Airlines Stewards and Stewardesses Association.
E waiho ʻia i kēia manawa i kahi koho balota o 9,000 mau kaʻa kaʻa no ka hōʻoia hope ʻana. Akā me ke kākoʻo ʻana o ke alakaʻi Unite a me nā kahu hale kūʻai kūloko, manaʻo ʻia ka hōʻoia ʻana he ʻano hana.
Ma muli o ke koho balota ʻana, ʻaʻole hiki ke hoʻokō ʻia kekahi nalu o nā kuʻi, i hiki ke hoʻomaka i kēia pule aʻe.
Hoʻopau ka ʻaelike i ka hoʻopaʻapaʻa 18 mau mahina i ʻike i ka maikaʻi o ka mokulele i hōʻeha ʻia e 22 mau lā o ka hoʻokuʻu ʻana a me ka hoʻopau ʻana i nā haneli he nui, ʻo ke kumu kūʻai ʻo BA he £ 150 miliona.
Ma hope o nā mahina o ka make ʻana ua hiki mai ka holomua ma hope o nā loli ma luna o Unite a me BA.
Ua lilo ʻo Keith Williams i luna nui o ka BA ma hope o ka Willie Walsh ʻoi aku ka ʻoi aku o ka abrasive.
I ka manawa like, aia kekahi kanaka hou ma ka hoʻokele o Unite, ʻo Len McCluskey, ʻoiai ma mua o kona lilo ʻana i Kakauolelo Nui ʻo ia kekahi o nā mea kūkākūkā nui o ka hui.
Ma ke kamaʻilio ʻana i nā poʻe kaʻa ma kahi hui haʻuki ma waho o ke kahua mokulele ʻo Heathrow, ua hāʻawi ʻo Mr McLuskey i kahi hoʻomaikaʻi piha i ke aliʻi BA hou.
"Ua loaʻa iaʻu he kanaka kūpono, ua ʻike wau he kanaka ʻoiaʻiʻo a ʻoiaʻiʻo," wahi a Mr McCluskey.
ʻO ka hoʻopaʻapaʻa kumu i hoʻokumu ʻia e ka noi a BA no nā loli koʻikoʻi i nā hana hana, i ʻōlelo ʻia e ka mokulele, he mea nui ia no kona ola ʻana.
Ua paʻa kēia mau hoʻololi no kekahi manawa, me 1,000 mau ʻauwaʻa e lawe i ka hoʻihoʻi manawaleʻa a ʻokiʻoki ʻo BA i hoʻokahi limahana lālā mai kēlā me kēia lele haul lōʻihi.
Ua ʻae pū ka uniona i ka hoʻokomo ʻia ʻana o ka mea i kapa ʻia he "auwaʻa hou", me ka poʻe i hoʻolimalima ʻia ma nā ʻōlelo haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa ma mua o nā mea i kau ʻia no nā limahana e kū nei.
Eia nō naʻe, a hiki i ka wā i hoʻomaka ai, ua ʻike ʻia nā pilikia ʻelua, ʻo ka hoʻopaʻi ʻana i ka poʻe i hele i ke kuʻi, ʻo ia hoʻi ka hoʻihoʻi ʻana i nā mokulele manuahi a hoʻemi ʻia.
He pilikia koʻikoʻi ka huakaʻi o nā limahana no ka nui o nā poʻe e noho ana ma waho akā e hana ana mai nā mokulele Pelekane.
Ma lalo o ka ʻaelike i hoʻopaʻa ʻia e nā mea kūkākūkā e hoʻihoʻi piha ʻia ka perk i ka wā i hoʻopau ʻia ai ka hoʻopaʻapaʻa ma hope o ke koho balota.
Ua loaʻa pū nā ʻaoʻao ʻelua i kahi kuʻikahi uku no nā makahiki ʻelua e hiki mai ana, e pili ana i ka huahana, e ʻike i nā poʻe kaʻa kaʻa e loaʻa nā piʻi o ʻehā a me 3.5 pākēneka.
E hoʻoholo ʻia nā hihia hoʻopaʻi ma o ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana i ka hoʻopaʻapaʻa.
Ma ke kamaʻilio ʻana ma hope o ke koho balota, ua hoʻohui ʻo Mr McCluskey: "He nui ka hōʻaiʻē i ka luna hoʻokele hou, ʻo Keith Williams, ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia ua ʻike mākou makemake mākou i kahi hoʻoholo hanohano.
"Ua ʻōlelo mau mākou e hiki ke hoʻoholo ʻia ka hoʻopaʻapaʻa ma ke kūkākūkā ʻana, ʻaʻole ma o ka hoʻopiʻi ʻana, ʻaʻole ma o ka hakakā ʻana a ʻaʻole ma o ka hoʻoweliweli."
Ua hoʻokipa ʻo BA i ka ʻaelike, "Ma ka ʻaoʻao o kā mākou mea kūʻai aku, hauʻoli nui mākou i ka hoʻoweliweli ʻana o ka hana ʻoihana a ua hiki mākou i kahi e hiki ai iā mākou ke waiho i kēia hoʻopaʻapaʻa ma hope o mākou," wahi a kahi ʻōlelo.

He aha e lawe ʻia mai kēia ʻatikala:
- The deal brings to an end a damaging 18-month dispute which saw the airline's reputation hit by 22 days of strikes and the cancellation of hundreds of flights, costing BA an estimated £150 million.
- Ua hoʻokipa ʻo BA i ka ʻaelike, "Ma ka ʻaoʻao o kā mākou mea kūʻai aku, hauʻoli nui mākou i ka hoʻoweliweli ʻana o ka hana ʻoihana a ua hiki mākou i kahi e hiki ai iā mākou ke waiho i kēia hoʻopaʻapaʻa ma hope o mākou," wahi a kahi ʻōlelo.
- At the same time there has been a new man at the helm of Unite, Len McCluskey, although even before becoming General Secretary he was one of the union's main negotiators.
